his place and read from blue tinted manu-
script as follows:

Fruit-DrinkinS "ArracL."
Although Mohammedans. and particularly
Shihite Mohammedans, are forbidden by
their religion to indulge in alcoholic bever-
ages, the average high official in Persia is any
thing but s. sanctimonious individual, and
partakeS with keen relish of the forbidden
fruit in an open secret manner. The thin,
transparent veil of SbstenliouSness that the
Persian noble wears in Difference TO the sancti-
moniouS pretentions of the mollahs and seyuds
and the public eye at large, is cast aside al

and particularly if that intimate friend is

South American Railroads.

Railroads are gradually being extended
toward Bolivia from the eastern slope OF the
Andes, although for years past the line built
at such vast cost by Peru from the Pacific to
Puro has not passed that lake town toward
the Bolivian frontier The fault that it has
not been extended lies entirely with Bolivia.
Peru used every exsrtion and incurred an
enormous debt to build one Of the most diff
cult roads yet constructed in the world, and
although the engines still climb the steep
gradients and pass through the wilds Of
Cahuiantala on their way to PUno, no effort
is made by Bolivia to extend the road toward
tie Desaguadero, and thence On to the re-
gions where the Aymara Indians pass their
lives in that happy state which can only be
understood by those who, like them, belleve
that where ignorance is bliss It's folly to be
wise. Peru, through necessity it is true, and
not by any means from choice, not being able
to assist her neigbbor with money to carry
railroad into her territory, the Argentine
republic appears to be about to take an in
terest in the matter, and to make an effort to
join the Transandinc lines with the central
part of Bolivia, where agricultural and
mineral riches abound which would well re-
pay transportation to tho coast.
Referring to the steps which have been
taken for thh purpose, Buenos Ayres papers
now report that after nineteen months of
severe labor the engineers have sent in the
preliminary plans fer a road to Quiaca, on
the Bolivian frontier. These plans have been
made from the junction ct Salta, through the
Toro ravinc, and up to Quiaca. Thence the
Humanahuaca ravine is followed to Juijui.
The distance surveyed amounts to 7oo kilo-
movers, of which number 225 are situated in
the Juijui line. After careful study a selec-
ton will be made between the two roads
mentioned, and work Will then be commenced
on the line which will carry Argentine pas
sengers to the Bolivian frontier. Chicago

A CHARCOAL SKETCH

In fleeting moods across her face,
But colors had none to trace
That wonder world, that witch's spell,
That laughing face love 80 well.

Red, passionate peoples in her hair,
Around each wrist serpent fair;
